San Fran's newspaper exposes Elite Control Scheme

Posted on Apr 25th, 2008 by Charles : YogiLibertarian Charles

Both Parties are controlled by the same international elites, and in this new, Aquarian Age, we have to meditate, read worthwhile history (like the Mencken book alluded to below), and make our own informed choices.  And today, the San Francisco Chronicle has  exposed the NeoCon Elite's scheme to use fear and control to centralize power.  Have you ever read anything as Orwellian as this?

"Beginning in 1999, the government has entered into a series of single-bid contracts with Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg, Brown and Root (KBR) to build detention camps at undisclosed locations within the United States. The government has also contracted with several companies to build thousands of railcars, some reportedly equipped with shackles, ostensibly to transport detainees."

And for what reason are concentration camps needed in each state of the Union?

Sect. 1042 of the 2007 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), "Use of the Armed Forces in Major Public Emergencies," gives the executive the power to invoke martial law. For the first time in more than a century, the president is now authorized to use the military in response to "a natural disaster, a disease outbreak, a terrorist attack or any other condition in which the President determines that domestic violence has occurred to the extent that state officials cannot maintain public order."

The Military Commissions Act of 2006, rammed through Congress just before the 2006 midterm elections, allows for the indefinite imprisonment of anyone who donates money to a charity that turns up on a list of "terrorist" organizations, or who speaks out against the government's policies. The law calls for secret trials for citizens and noncitizens alike.

Also in 2007, the White House quietly issued National Security Presidential Directive 51 (NSPD-51), to ensure "continuity of government" in the event of what the document vaguely calls a "catastrophic emergency." Should the president determine that such an emergency has occurred, he and he alone is empowered to do whatever he deems necessary to ensure "continuity of government." This could include everything from canceling elections to suspending the Constitution to launching a nuclear attack. Congress has yet to hold a single hearing on NSPD-51.

And to fill those camps with dissidents, er, I mean, terrorists:

U.S. Rep. Jane Harman, D-Venice (Los Angeles County) has come up with a new way to expand the domestic "war on terror." Her Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007, which passed the House by the lopsided vote, would set up a commission to "examine and report upon the facts and causes" of so-called violent radicalism and extremist ideology, then make legislative recommendations on combatting it.

A clue as to where Harman's commission might be aiming is the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act, a law that labels those who "engage in sit-ins, civil disobedience, trespass, or any other crime in the name of animal rights" as terrorists. Other groups in the crosshairs could be anti-abortion protesters, anti-tax agitators, immigration activists, environmentalists, peace demonstrators, Second Amendment rights supporters ... the list goes on and on. According to author Naomi Wolf, the National Counterterrorism Center holds the names of roughly 775,000 "terror suspects" with the number increasing by 20,000 per month.

The San Francisco Chronicle is a mainstream media company, so no one can call this conspiracy theory.

There will be more and more dissidents subject to these Police State laws as dissidents are created by Elite funding of both sides of advocacy fights. Take the immigration battle: both sides are controlled. Immigration shouldn't be an issue - our Constitution grants no Power for the federal govt to interfere in human movement in or out of the border. All the Founders wanted was a system of Naturalization by which immigrants could become citizens, and otherwise Free Trade to make sure no foreigner wanted to kill us and to ensure a growing economy to employ all the newcomers.

Another Elite favorite is the Drug War, against which even former cops are advocating through a group called LEAP. Yesterday I blogged about a client's lawsuit to overturn the whole war. Speaking of Enforcement, here's what H.L. Mencken, American's great social critic from the 1920s, said. Can't wait to read his just-found book, "Notes on Democracy".

And when the Elite face criticism, they do a minimal amount of good things, and make sure their Elite media friends broadcast about those actions. The World Trade Organization, for example, is colluding with Big Pharma and Big Agra to have the United Nation's Codex group outlaw natural food and nutrients, as blogged previously. But WTO also does help consumers gain access to more goods and services. Does the latter, then, justify extra-national government, of which the WTO is an example?

Another international body facilitates Elite control of developing countries. The World Bank funds giant infrastructure projects that, since they do not arise from the private sector, lack long term sustainability, and at the same time crowd out investment that otherwise would fund loans to middle class retailers. Congressman Paul says as much in a recent Banking Committee hearing.

The Elite want their "frankenfoods," and they're isolating Europe's intransigence with appeals about the hunger of the world.

Elites now are being blamed by a SE Asian country for using Avian Flu as a BioTerrorist weapon, and as a Big Pharma tool to sell vaccines.

But the Elites can't handle threats to their War against Terrorism: no acquittals are allowed in Gitmo, which should be ceded back to Cuba, just as trade restrictions with Cuba should be lifited with Castro's departure. And for those taken in by Michael Moore's "Sicko," that Castro's healthcare system was admirable, think again.

Not only are acquittals prohibited for the poor prisoners at Guantanomo, but also dissent in the Media is verboten, as Chez found out at CNN, for his Huffington blogging.

Finally, I can't believe the Elites are interfering in children playtime with legos.

I'm so happy to have run across this post.  I had no idea that a major U.S. newspaper could or even would print such revealing news.  The rather disturbing thing though is that I'm the first person to respond since this was posted and it's been over a month.  If we don't wake up and do it quickly we're all going to be in trouble so deep that it will take a miracle to get us out of it.
